The Koolau Kroppers met this past weekend and I just had to show you the cards swapped this month. They are the cutest! I did make slight modifications which, in most of the cases, just involved a different base.

Lastly, I received a belated birthday card from Sherri which I repurposed. Isn't he the cutest! I believe he is one of the critters in Cricut's Create A Critter cartridge.

At some point, instead of telling people, "I'm a scrapper!" I was saying, "I'm a paper-crafter!" When did this happen? I used to be so adamant that I was "first and foremost" a SCRAPPOOKER!!

Look at the posts on this blog. Where are all the layouts! I mean compared to the number of cards . . .

So yesterday I created these and enjoyed it so, so much. The layouts contain my favorites: punch art, paper piecing, pen stitching, cardstock with a little pattern paper . . . and FAMILY! The journaling will be done after this post.

Here's a beautiful Tea Holder card created by my February Tea Partner, Kim from Ware, MA. I had created a Tea holder back in January 2010. Receiving this one from Kim gave me the inspiration to create another holder. Mmmmm.... Want the instructions? Here is the one I used.

Open call for March Tea Swap!!

Requirements: 2 tea bags in a handmade card mailed to your partner by March 5.
